About me
As a freelance journalist, I used to work with daily and monthly news magazines and newspapers, at a national and international scales (le Monde, the BBC, le Temps, El Diario.es). I covered in the past environmental, urbanism, sciences and finance topics.
I've been lucky enough to be able to see several facets of this profession through different positions, as a reporter and then as a section editor. These experiences led me to manage an editorial programme and supervise journalists.
Last year, I initiated and coordinated an cross-border investigation with a team of three European journalists. We worked on this project for eight months and published our work in two major newspapers in France (Le Monde) and Spain (El Diario.es).
​
My goal as a mid-career journalist is now to explore different forms of journalism and methods of investigations, mainly in environmental and financial topics, like open research, explore leaks and look at some datasets. I began recently to learn computer programming (Python) too improve my journalism. Fluent in English, I am also learning Chinese since three years from now (a langage that I really love to learn).
